  abstract  = {According to the analysis of Cambridge Learner Corpus, using a wrong verb is
	the most common type of grammatical errors. 
	This paper describes Verb Replacer, a system for detecting and correcting
	potential verb errors in a given sentence.  In our approach, alternative verbs
	are considered to replace the verb based on an error-annotated corpus and
	verb-object collocations. 
	The method involves applying regression on channel models, parsing the
	sentence, identifying the verbs, retrieving a small set of alternative verbs,
	and evaluating each alternative. Our method combines and improves channel and
	language models, resulting in high recall of detecting and correcting verb
	misuse.},
